Reaction to 9/11 (and our video)

I hope everyone has found the video this week on the events of September 11, 2001, informative. I also hope that you agree that it is important that events such as this are remembered long after they occurred.

There are a couple of questions that I want you to comment on here:

  1. What are some of the ways in which life in the United States have changed since September 11, 2007?
  2. How will 9/11 be remembered by kids 50 years from now? Will it remain as important event as it is today? How should it be remembered?

Please comment on anything else (within this topic) that you feel is important to share.

This link will take you to the Wikipedia articles dealing with 9/11. Please feel free to use it, as well as other resources, to learn about the events of 9/11/01. Keep in mind that sources such as Wikipedia are largely formed by personal opinions of the authors. Be careful what you consider facts.

To receive credit for this assignment your comments should be posted by Friday (9/14) morning.

One way it's changed is now there is more security insome states.ONE way we will remeber it as a reason why we have more security.

I think that kids will still remember 9 11 like they do today.

We will also have tighter security.

One form of remembering 9/11 is that we can look at the amount of time for security it takes if you are flying or just flying it self.
:( a way we will remember in about this event in about 50 years from now is that some people were born on that date. We also might not remember it becausei8t would have been so long ago.

bye

I think that the video was interesting and that it indeed did teach me something. I also agree with Haley that there is a lot more security now than there was, and i also agree with Dylan that people will remember 9/11 for there whole live. It was a very tragic thing to hapen.

Today, we have a completely different strategy then when we had on 9/11.In the futur, we will still remember 9/11 as the day many hard-working people died and the day that the U.S.A.'s thought of terrorism completely changed.

1)The airports will have tighter security. 2)one way we will remember 9/11 is that it was a tragety that killed over 3,000 people.

9/11 changed the USA because about 3,000 died when the towers got hit by the 4 planes.

Since 9/11 I think that all security personnel are professionals. They are more concerned about everything that goes through security. I think that in fifty years people will still look back on 9/11 just like we as kids look back on all of the wars. I know I will never forget that awful tragedy.

9/11 was a very sad day. We will remeber it by allways having more sercrity in airports. I think in 50 years, the kids will remeber 9/11 as it was only yesterday.

I think that security is much better than it used to be and we have security on planes. I think that it is very important because it destroyed two of our biggest monuments.

Many things have changed since 9/11/01. At airports security has gotten very strict.Your luggage can only be a certain amount off pounds or you have to buy extra suitcases or travel bags.You used to be able to get to the airport within minutes of your airplanes takeoff but niw for securuty reasons you have to be there at least an hour oor two before your flight.50 years from now I think September, 9, 2001.I think people eill remember 9/11 by all the people who lost their lives and how many families were affected. I think that people should people should remember that day because many innocent people lost their lives. We should remember by making this day a holiday.

there is much more security at government buildings and airports.
i think people will remember it like we remember Pearl Harbor.

Life has changed since 9/11 because you used to be able to get airport 10 minutes before the planes leave, but now you need to be there somewhere around a hour and a half to two hours.
I think that it doesn’t matter how far into the future it is because close to 3,000 peopled died and that will never go away and that’s hard to forget. Just like Pearl Harbor.

9/11 caused security in the United States to increase to help prevent future terrorism. The terrorist did a horrible thing to innocent people and our country. We will remember 9/11 50 years from now because of recorded history and the monuments to the victims in the new buildings to remind our generation and future generations of that terrible day and what it means.

i think that 9/11 was realy bad and i can't belive someone would do that even though i kinda think that it was all a conspiricy but if the terorist really did cause that then i can not belive they got away with it.

I think the video about 9/11 was cool because of what the people did on flight 93.

Anonymous said...

One of the ways are the airports are safer and they take more time to make sure that you and other people are safe. I think that people shoul make a remorial too!

P.S.The video was sad but really good "bye"!

I think the United States have changed alot because in the airports around year 2000 you didn't have to take off your shoes and all metal things.
I think all wil be remembered by you talking about the 9/11 every september 11th.

Some ways 9 11 has changed peoples lives is that airport security has become more stritc about what you bring on plans.I think that kids will remember 9 11 but not as much as we remember it today.

Mr. Veliz said...

Life has changed because now the security types has changed and some people are not here today because they got affected by it.

Mr. Veliz said...

It will remain important because from now on people will tell their children about it and tell them about if a family member was affected by it. The other on is from Emily also!!!!!
